Residenze: Santa Clara, CA

Résumé: Hmm.. Sea Otter XC Beginner - 9th, Sonoma (worst race ever) - 2nd, Pilarcitos CX beginner - 5th, and some others I don't remember or am too lazy to look up my results :)

Bikes I ride:
*Santa Cruz Juliana Superlight - blue with pink fork, decorated with Chris King components. Cute and dainty bike, lots of flair, and cushy suspension.

*Soul Craft Title Nine - fabulous TIG welded steel frame, Fox F80x fork, pink Terry Saddle. This bike climbs so well, it's like someone is pushing me uphill. Strong, light, not flashy at all, but amazing handling!

*Vanilla - my custom fillet brazed steel road bike. Sexiest, sickest bike I've ever owned, garnished with campy record components, and sprinkled with carbon fiber parts. Hands down the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen out there. Vanilla rocks! pictures: www.dirtdivas.org/vanilla.html

*Electra cruiser - super sparkly barbie pink cruiser, with pink and white streamers, a cute white basket, and a squeeky monster horn. I'm the envy of all 6 year olds on this bike :)

*De Bernardi - my first road bicycle. Very heavy Italian steel, nothing flashy, very dependable, very very heavy!

How I support by Bike Habit: Software engineer by day, crack dealer by night :) Was part time bike mechanic for a while but holding down two jobs made me sick. I'm allergic to work!

Best Time on the Bike: Almost everytime!

Worst Time on the Bike: Dislocating my shoulder at Skeggs. Having to walk back uphill to my car, dizzy and hurting. Cute firefighters giving me morphine did help however to lessen the pain.

My Motto: "Steel is real" :)

Favorite Post-Ride Food: Mexican food, and a weird craving for lemonade
